My student wrote it, but I don’t understand this syntax...let's hope this student is not reading this thread ;)
I always think of this structure as a form 'complification'. But some programmers seem to love it.
BTW BricsCAD does not accept it.

Hello!
Thank you all so much!
I did not know about such use of defun-q
If you use the double apostrophe syntax there is no symbol to propagate.I always think of this structure as a form 'complification'. But some programmers seem to love it.

I don’t "love it" but the native form (i.e. raw list via setq or defun-q) of function defs is propagate-able, whereas optimized function defs (via defun) are not. I touch on it briefly here (http://www.theswamp.org/index.php?topic=53912.msg585657#msg585657). Cheers.
I was talking about propagating defuns.I know. But the aficionados of the syntax (double apostrophe) being discussed here are not concerned with that. They are not creating a named variable (symbol).
